Primal Sound - a disc to grow

audible, visual and haptic model

about the title: http://ghostisland.wordpress.com/2009/01/10/rilke-and-the-skull-digital-synesthesia/


The initial thought was to create a record from organic material, able to align itself into various shapes according to changing outer stimulus (e.g. light, temperature). To show this selfchanging music even more drastic it could be only one single loop on the record that is played continuously and changes constantly.


The second thought was: What could be heard on the record? What could be the audible output? This question brought me back to an approach of sonification in the probably oldest form of capturing sound. A haptic sampling of a phonogramm in a much smaller scale. So the jelly model, which is in a proper dimension for the first thought becomes a makro-model of a single sequence of DNA, ready to become audible by a nano scale needle.

You might find this interesting: softmachines.org. It'a weblog for the book of the same name, written by Richard A. L. Jones. I own the book and Bastian should have it at the moment. Althoug it's rather talking about Nanotechnology than about Syn Bio.
